This coverage shows the regions
locations where geothermal resources may exist, but evidence suggests that the
probability of encountering a geothermal resource having a temperature greater
than 200°C within 3 kilometers of the surface is 50% or less. The boundaries
for these areas were drawn on the basis of geophysical and geochemical evidence
and on the basis of the inferred structure and thermal resources of the
individual volcanoes on each island. It is unlikely that geothermal resources
will be found everywhere within the gray areas; however, the boundaries are
believed to encompass all probable geothermal areas within the State of Hawaii.

Purpose:

Provides a visual representation of
existing geothermal resources and potential areas for residential and commercial
direct use applications.

Supplemental_Information:

This data layer is shown on a map
in conjunction with land ownership and spring and well temperatures.

Process_Step:

Process_Description:

The original map was registered and
the identified thermal waters polygons were digitized. A polygon coverage was
generated and projected. Once the layer was drawn on a map and reviewed with
other geothermal feature, such as spring and well temperature data the polygons
were modified by heads-up digitizing on the screen based on drawing provided by
the Renewable Energy and Power Technology group.

In order to generate updates to
this data layer a formal request must be submitted to Patrick Laney at the
